Now that things aren’t running so smoothly it shows more than ever. She hasn’t been able to celebrate one of her “easy-peasy“ victories so far this year, even though she was really close to winning in Sestriere: in an ultra tight GS just one-hundredth of a second separated Mikaela’s 3rd place from the top of the podium; in the parallel giant slalom qualifier she skied the fastest time. It’s tighter than usual between the world’s best female technical ski racers – MIkaela might change that any time again, though.

But a true champ never gives up: Krueger triumphed in the last race of the Tour with an impressive finish on the legendary final climb towards Alpe Cermis, earning him a 5th place in the overall Tour de Ski ranking.
